Taiwan’s Global Mobile has become the latest operator to swap out WiMAX technology for LTE.
Although Global Mobile’s current infrastructure and base stations are running on WiMAX technology, they are compatible with LTE, chairperson Rosemary Ho told reporters yesterday, reports the Taipei Times.
The government mandates that local WiMAX licensees must increase their coverage to at least 70 percent before they can apply to switch to LTE.
To hit the 70 percent coverage target, Global Mobile has to have at least 1,000 base stations deployed - a number which Ho said should be achieved by the end of this year.
